OneAgent version 1.153 now provides new measurements for AIX LPAR hosts. With the introduction of kernel threads, it’s now easier to identify a logical partitions’ oversubscription to computation power, specifically in the area of logical CPUs. The additional counters for blocked threads suggest areas for potential reconfiguration.
